If you’ve ever wanted to see all seven continents in comfort and luxury, now is your chance.

TCS World Travel, a luxury private jet company, has revealed a new itinerary that takes travelers around the world in 29 days. The trip, called Seven Continents by Private Jet, touches down in twelve different global destinations across all seven continents.

The journey will utilize the company’s custom-configured Airbus A321, which seats 52 and features flatbed leather seats, as well as an 18-member crew that includes a chef and a physician. The trip is fully all-inclusive, with private flights, accommodations, transportation, dining, expert guides, sightseeing options, and more.

TCS World Travel has partnered with White Desert to offer private jet access to Antarctica’s interior for the first time. This day trip through the coldest continent will take place during Antarctica’s summer when the sun shines for 24 hours, and will provide maximum comfort with parkas and baffin boots available for warmth.

“Visiting all seven continents in a single journey has long been a dream for TCS World Travel, and now it’s a reality,” Shelley Cline, President of TCS World Travel, said in a statement shared with Travel + Leisure. “We pioneered the flagship Around the World journey over 30 years ago, and this new expedition takes experiential travel to extraordinary new heights. Seven Continents is the pinnacle of global adventure–a bucket list experience delivered with comfort, ease, enriching cultural encounters, and the exceptional service our guests know they can expect.”

Last night, we had another fine evening with Rita, Gerhard, and Inge at Amazing River View. The food was good, the scenery outstanding, and the conversation lively and animated, as always. Today, the three of them are coming for dinner while we use some of the meat from the freezer. We used three packages of skinless, boneless chicken breasts to make a large batch of chicken salad, served on toasted buns with oven-baked chips (fries) and sautéed mushrooms.

The week will wind down quickly while we’re busy with our friends and beginning to pack.

Be well.
